The footballers of the first men's team played in the Hessen group league since the 2016/17 season, the A and B youth teams in the corresponding Hessen leagues. Starting with the 2010/11 season, the C-Youth will play in the newly founded C-Junior Regional League. The second team of the C-Juniors plays in the association league. The D-youth plays in the group league, the younger age groups of the A- and B-youth compete in the district league and association league.
In the 2011/12 season, Wieseck's first team was bottom of the group in the middle of the table and thus rose from the association league to the seventh-class group league Gießen / Marburg. In the 2014/15 season they rose again as runner-up in the association league. However, they rose again directly from bottom of the table.
Youth work is particularly important in the football department. In 2007 the so-called youth development center was founded to offer talented young people the best possible training. Professional structures and a total of 44 employees are available to over 300 youth players. The board of directors of the youth development center of TSG Wieseck consists of 14 members. A large part of the training is talent development in Central Hesse.
